Interface Guide

Switch combat speed between 1x / 1.5x / 2x to suit your playstyle.

6) Unit Selection Button
Selects the unit currently eligible to act. This is especially useful when the unit is off-screen or obscured by UI elements.

8) Danger Area Button
Displays enemy Basic Attack ranges on the battlefield.
However, enemies may still hit outside the displayed range when using skills, so please use caution.
